Umbrella Client: Cogent
Cogent is a distinguished Building Consultancy LLP, founded by a group of passionate and highly experienced professionals dedicated to offering unparalleled building surveying and project management advice. Established with a mission to provide an environment that fosters top-tier consultancy services, Cogent is renowned for its focus on innovation, expertise, and client satisfaction in every project it undertakes.
Umbrella Model: City Walker Umbrella
Custom manufactured umbrella for this project, Cogent chose the City Walker Umbrella, a stylish and contemporary model that offers the perfect blend of function and fashion. This double-canopy umbrella is digitally printed with stunning contrasting colours, making it a standout piece for any occasion. It is particularly favoured by brands seeking a modern twist on the traditional wood walker umbrella, combining aesthetic appeal with practicality.
The City Walker Umbrella sits comfortably between two popular umbrella types: the large golf umbrella, known for its wide coverage and ideal for outdoor events or sports activities, and the smaller folding umbrella, which is compact and portable. The City Walker offers a mid-sized design, perfectly suited for urban environments, where navigating crowded spaces with a fully extended umbrella can be challenging.
Customisation Details for Cogent Umbrella
Cogent’s bespoke umbrellas are a true reflection of the brand’s identity, with custom design elements carefully crafted to ensure a distinctive and professional appearance. The outside umbrella panels are Pantone-matched to a striking turquoise colour, while the inside panels boast a vibrant bright orange. This bold, contrasting colour scheme is not only visually appealing but also reinforces Cogent’s branding with consistency and flair.
To add further exclusivity, the Cogent logo is digitally printed on opposite panels of the umbrella, with the icon appearing on alternate panels. The Pantone matching ensures the colours remain consistent and vibrant across all brand assets, and digital printing is employed to maintain the integrity of fine details in the logo’s design. This method guarantees both the colour vibrancy and precision in replicating fine lines, ensuring that Cogent’s branding is showcased with excellence.
Handle Design and Materials for Custom Manufactured Umbrella
The umbrella features a curved silicon handle, designed for extra comfort during extended use. This ergonomic handle ensures that users can carry the umbrella for long periods without discomfort. The sleek and modern handle is complemented by a black anodised shaft and a gun metal tip, creating a stylish contrast against the umbrella’s vibrant design. The combination of durable materials and refined design ensures that the umbrella is both practical and long-lasting.
Shipping and Logistics Expertise
At Wurlin-The Umbrella Workshop, we understand the importance of timely delivery and attention to detail. Our expert shipping team ensured that Cogent’s custom-designed umbrellas were delivered on schedule, within budget, and to precise specifications. We managed every aspect of the logistics, ensuring the umbrellas arrived safely and promptly, meeting Cogent’s unmovable deadlines. Whether shipping domestically within the UK or internationally, we handle all logistics to provide a seamless, hassle-free experience for our clients.
Umbrella Design Options
Cogent’s umbrellas were designed with flexibility and customization in mind. In addition to the stunning double-canopy design, Cogent had the opportunity to further personalize their umbrellas with a range of additional features. These included:
- Handle ring engraving: Adding an extra layer of customisation with engraved details, ideal for personalisation or branding.
- Digital prints on both the inside and outside panels: This option allows brands to incorporate additional messaging, logos, or decorative elements.
- Custom umbrella carry cases: For an extra touch of elegance and practicality, Cogent could have chosen to personalise the carry cases with the company logo, ensuring visibility even when the umbrella is not in use.
For clients seeking rapid delivery, we also offer UK-printed umbrellas with simpler designs, such as logo prints on the canopy. These can be produced in just 2-3 weeks for clients with tighter timelines. For those who prefer a more detailed or bespoke design, like the one created for Cogent, we offer a longer lead time, allowing for more intricate customisations.
Premium Customisation Features for Custom Manufactured Umbrella
For clients looking to elevate their umbrella designs further, we offer a range of premium features for custom manufactured umbrellas, such as engraved handle rings, custom carry cases, and even woven or printed labels sewn into the fabric of the umbrella. These subtle branding elements can enhance the overall aesthetic and reinforce brand identity, offering a level of sophistication that elevates the entire product.
